Yamazaki Bourbon Barrel 2013 Japanese Single Malt Whisky 48.0% ABV - the last of the coveted and limited 2013 Cask Collection of Suntory
Suntory s Yamazaki whiskies are crafted in Japan s oldest distillery. Built in 1923, the Yamazaki Distillery was created by Suntory s founder Shinjiro Torii. Nestled on the periphery of Kyoto, the water is reputed to be among the purest and softest in Japan. He was eager to create perfect Japanese Whisky that reflects the nature of Japan and the spirits of Japanese craftsmanship. Shinjiro Torii s unswerving passion and outstanding craftsmanship have been passed down from generations to generation, who have continued to take Japanese Whisky to new heights. A bottle of Gold Medal Award-Winning Yamazaki Bourbon Barrel from the 2013 Cask Collection, the final year of the series. It s a delightful mixture of freshly squeezed oranges, plums, honey and green apples. For the first five sips, a new flavor was revealed on the palate in a distinct way. This spirit has plenty of oranges, peaches, green apple and a hint of coconut. Since the palate was so rich in flavor, the finish left a bit to be desired. Suntory has outdone themselves, this is a truly exquisite whisky. Aged in 180 litre casks which used to hold bourbon and matured in a warm moist climate resulting in an elegant and sweet Japanese whisky which got the ISC2014 Gold Medal. A great bottling to celebrate their 90th anniversary and an experience from whisky you will never forget.
